520 _a"Two Boy Gold Miners; Or, Lost in the Mountains" by Frank V. Webster is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around two brothers, Jed and Will Crosby, who live on a struggling farm in the Midwest. Facing hard times due to drought and financial difficulties, the boys become intrigued by the prospect of gold mining and set off on an adventure to find their fortunes in the West. The opening of this tale introduces us to the Crosby family and their challenging life on the farm, emphasizing their struggles during a dry spell affecting their crops. We meet Enos, their father, who is worried about providing for his family, and his two sons, Jed and Will, whose contrasting temperaments reflect different outlooks on their situation. As the story unfolds, the boys encounter Gabe Harrison, an old gold miner, who ignites their ambition to prospect for gold. Their journey to the mountains promises excitement and adventure, setting the stage for the challenges and discoveries that lie ahead. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
